I rang Excel Taxis for a cab from the Northern General to my home. The man there said they weren't picking up from some parts of the city, but I was lucky.

The same thing happened to me at the Northern General last Monday. I was forty minutes late for my appointment, after trying to gt a parking space for half an hour. For me too, it's the bus in future. One of the car parks was only half full, but the attendant said it was for staff parking only.

Spiritualist Church - Club Garden Walk
Nigel Womersle replied to DerbyTup's topic in Sheffield History & Expats
I never went to the church, but I did meet Mr Turner. I also met a lovely lady from the church. Her name was Mrs Hickman, but we always called her Aunty Daisy. They came to our house, and it s amazing the things Mt Turner told us. His features seemed to change too. Of course this is many years ago,I was only a child, but the memory stays with me. -

I saw Alan Price and Georgie Fame at the Cavendish Cub in 1967. If I remember rightly, the dance floor rose and became the stage. -
Help needed - Memories of the Royal Infirmiry
Nigel Womersle replied to mbunting's topic in Sheffield History & Expats
Perhaps you are right. I am most likely getting mixed up, as it was probably some other building. It was such a long time ago and I was only five. -
Thanks for the information Dave 3434.

When my late Mother was in The Royal Infirmary during the late 1940's, my Dad used to take me to see her. I am sure there was a building there which had the following inscription over the main door - 'Abandon hope all ye who enter here'. Am I right or wrong please? -
The first Landlord and Landlady in the new High Greave were Arthur and Agnes Gregory, who had been licencees at the old High Greave. They had a son called Eric, who stood in for them from time to time. However Eric (my neighbour) was not fat at all. Perhaps there was another Eric though.

Thursday is their half day. If you ring at 8.30 am, you will probably get a same day appointment, as some appointments are kept back for that purpose. -
